Vehicle Description
1967 Ford Mustang Convertible
This may be the most iconic American car to ever be produced.
That's up for debate, of course, as one could argue the Model A,
the Corvette, or any number of cars had an equally or more
impactful effect on the country. Considering how many generations
and changes the Mustang has witnessed, 1967 represents the first
time Ford boldly moved forward to make some significant design
changes and even offered engine options for the first time. This
was a bold move because the first generation sales were strong;
don't mess with perfection. But they did and it just kept getting
better.
For consignment, a 1967 Ford Mustang Convertible with a 75,412miles
showing on the odometer, however these cannot be verified as actual
due to the odometer running backwards. Newer tires, newer carpet,
and newer exhaust are just some of the ingredients that make this a
sweet dish you're going to want to spoon with!
Exterior
A fresh coat of Springtime Yellow arrives just in time for summer
on this top down version of America's favorite pony car and the
black rocker stripe combined with the canvas top makes for a
handsome package. Magnum 500's are a great option for the wheels,
here are staggered 14-inch fronts and 15-inch rears creating a
strong stance with fatter tires in the back and a set of rubber
dated mid 2023. For a bump in aggression, there's a front air dam
added to the stang's familiar face while out back, it's picture
perfect standard fare with the model's iconic three part tail
lights. New for 1967 quarter ducts add a straked, recessed detail
inside the cove of a C-shaped body line while the front fenders
carry the horse over 289, and MUSTANG. Imperfections here involve
only the canvas top which has some age, a tear, and the plastic
window is hazy.
Interior
Black is the theme on the inside where vinyl cards are inserted
into plastic door panels, artfully designed and representing 60's
trends very well, and done so cleanly. Low back bucket seats are
also in black vinyl, while the back seats show a bit of patina as
do the sidewalls and ashtrays. Back up front, a glossy black
steering wheel frames a sporty dash with chrome rimmed gauges
arranged in a symmetrical pattern where small circles fill the gaps
between the two main gauges, and all are in great shape. In the
center, an AM/FM radio is well within reach of both front occupants
and a tall Hurst shifter rises from the floor that is neatly
covered in newer black loop carpet. The trunk is barren, painted,
and spotless.
Drivetrain
Show quality awaits under the hood where a 289ci V8 resides and its
black Ford racing valve cover with red lettering nicely matches the
distributor cap and wires. The super clean powerplant wears a
4-barrel carburetor and is mated to a 3-speed manual transmission
that routes power to the Ford 8" rear. Drum brakes occupy each of
the four wheels.
Undercarriage
Our consignor states the car was coated with cosmoline some time
ago, and much of it persists, preventing rust and corrosion on the
underside and still appearing wet. As such, there's some, but not
much surface rust underneath and otherwise dry conditions. The
newer dual exhaust runs through stock style mufflers before exiting
discreetly under the car through straight pipes. Suspension
consists of coil springs up front and leaf springs in the back.
Drive-Ability
The 289 comes to life without fuss, and we row the gears to roll
this yellow horse onto the test loop. It has good power underfoot,
and we first note that second gear is tough to engage. Be that as
it may, the car trots to third gear without issue and provides a
ride that tracks straight and with this fresh set of meats, holds
the road well around turns. And speaking of turns, the horn tends
to blow when we turn the wheel, but will not respond to prompts
when pressed normally. The speedometer is not working and the
odometer runs backwards. Beyond these things, all functions work as
they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these
functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot
guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your
purchase.
Once a legend, always a legend and classic Mustangs will never
cease to be celebrated, revered, and just plain cool. This is a
fine example, straight and mostly original, an ideal car for
someone new to the hobby or who has a stable full of Mustangs. It
doesn't have to be spring to enjoy the Springtime Yellow and top
down excitement of a convertible classic Mustang!
